帕斯卡是法国数学家、物理学家。他没有受过正规的学校教育,但由于有良好的家庭教育,加上他自己聪明好学,因此语文学得很好,数学也学得很出色。16岁时参加了巴黎数学家和物理学家小组的学术活动,并发表了一篇有关圆锥曲线的出色论文,这篇论文使当年的帕斯卡名声大震,正式踏进了法国学术界的大门,取得了一个又一个的成果。帕斯卡在1648年表演了一个著名的实验:他用一个密闭的装满水的桶,在桶盖上插入一根细长的管子,从楼房的阳台上向细管子里灌水。结果只用了几杯水,就把桶压裂了,桶里的水就从裂缝中流了出来。 Pascal is a French mathematician and physicist. He did not have formal schooling, but due to his good family education and his own cleverness, he studied Chinese well and math matured. At the age of 16, he participated in the academic activities of the group of Paris mathematicians and physicists and published an excellent essay on the conic curve. This essay formally made the Pascal fame earthquake of the year march into the door of French academia, Achieved one after another fruit. Pascal performed a well-known experiment in 1648: he used a closed, water-filled barrel, inserted a slender tube into the lid, and poured thin tubes through the balcony of the building. The result was a few cups of water, the bucket fractured, the bucket of water flow out from the cracks.
